Gameplay Design & Programming
I design and build the systems players feel, from player controllers and enemy AI to custom A* navigation and surface-crawling movement, in C# and Unity.
Designer & Developer
Hi, I'm Alfred Johansson
Designer and C# developer with a strong foundation in object-oriented development. I shipped a game on Steam with 25,000+ copies and now lead a 12 person team as technical lead, with AI tools as a natural part of my flow.

What I bring
Strengths
Four things I am reliably good at, drawn from shipped games and real studio work.
02
Software Architecture
Object-oriented development with clean design patterns. I owned a shipped game's technical foundation: architecture decisions, version control and build pipeline.
03
Team Leadership
I lead a 12 person team as technical lead and shipped a game as CTO. I set the workflow, run sync meetings and keep systems modular and integration ready.
04
Testing & QA
Structured playtesting with clear repro steps and recorded playthroughs. I write actionable bug reports that speed up prioritization for the dev leads.
Selected work
Projects
Most of these were built with teams of friends from uni. Hover any card for the focus, tools and screenshots.

Role: Lead designer and programmer (CTO) on an 11 person team. I led programming and design from first prototype to release, and owned the technical foundation: architecture decisions, version control (Perforce) and build pipeline.
Pizza to Hell
Role: Technical lead and designer on my own company, Pizza to Hell HB. I lead a 12 person team as work lead, setting the workflow, running sync meetings and keeping systems modular and integration ready.

About me
I am a recent graduate with a strong foundation in C# and object-oriented development. I like owning systems end to end, from architecture and gameplay code to polish and iteration, and I care about shipping finished results that hold together.
I shipped a game on Steam with 25,000+ copies and currently lead a 12 person team as technical lead. I work with AI tools as a natural part of my development flow, and a C# background makes the step to other languages short. I hold a BSc in Media Technology with a focus on game development.
